Growing up, I thought of the one-piece bathing suit as the bikini’s uncool sister. Lately, though, I’ve noticed more and more swimmers wearing them (and looking fabulous) at the beach.
Why is the one-piece on the rise? I haven’t taken a national survey yet, but I have some guesses. This style hugs the body’s curves in a way that the bikini just can’t. A lot of one-pieces also have a vintage charm—wearing one, it’s hard not to feel like a Baywatch starlet, or Marilyn Monroe in that one iconic picture.
I decided that it was time to jump aboard the one-piece train. Here are six of my favorites, just in time for the hottest days of the summer.
From left to right, top to bottom:
Ava One-Piece Swimsuit in Ocean, Sorella Swim ($149): I love how the shirred panels on this suit go down to the upper thighs—it almost looks like a glamorous minidress! For comfort, it also has adjustable straps and an underwire bust.
Mirrored Floral Swimsuit, Topshop ($72): This floral print is intricate without being busy, and the cut-out back adds an unexpected sultry edge. You can even remove the straps if you want to.
The Fighter Scoop-Neck One-Piece, We Are Handsome ($148.50 on sale): You can’t go wrong by copying Rihanna, who’s been seen sporting this Australian brand’s snarling panther suit. I like the black-and-white contrast of the leopard version, and the super-low scoop back.
Pool Party One-Piece, L*Space by Monica Wise ($158): This suit screams Miami, Vegas, and LA all at once! The sassy arm cuffs are removable, if you’re worried about losing them doing the backstroke.
Ombre Dip Dye in Deep Magenta, Speedo ($89): The lycra fiber of this suit is extra durable, so you can tan or work out in it. Plus, it looks like a cocktail you’d drink on vacation.
The Zanzibar One-Piece, Josephine Swim ($160): The asymmetrical layout of this suit, designed for “the modern curvy woman,” is so fun and vibrant. The triangle of black between the prints also makes the waist look a little slimmer, and emphasizes an hourglass silhouette.

Every summer brings two things: a fashion trend piece on men’s shorts and another fashion trend piece on men’s shorts. This summer, for example, GQ magazine claims that men’s shorts are getting shorter, and the Wall Street Journal agrees.Looking at men’s shorts through a historical lens, though, hemlines aren’t really rising so much as they are diversifying. Before the rise of resort wear in the mid-1900s, shorts were pretty dull. There were breeches before the French Rrevolution and the knee-skimming shorts worn by schoolboys after it, but nothing too exciting in between. Certainly no smiley-face-print board shorts.Today, though, shorts have officially infiltrated mainstream menswear, and the lengths and styles have multiplied. Below, we break down four popular options.CARGO SHORTSCelebrity fan: David Beckham, circa 2011 Typical length: An inch or two past the knee Typical fit: Slouchy Best for: Weekend errands or anytime there's s a surplus of tater tots you can stash in one of your many pockets à la Napoleon Dynamite. Styling tip: These are casual, but you can dress them up with an oxford shirt under a crew-neck sweater for an unexpected preppy spin. Fun fact: Kanye West once tweeted, “I hate khaki cargo shorts.” So if you’re ever invited to his house, you can wear them and spark a spirited discussion!BERMUDA SHORTSCelebrity fan: Kanye West, circa 2011Typical length: Anywhere from mid-thigh to knee-skimmingTypical fit: NarrowBest for: Often called chino shorts, these are basically interchangeable with chinos. They’re a polished warm-weather option for golf or—depending on your office culture—work.Styling tip: To try out the short-shorts trend without committing to it, you can always experiment with rolling these, like this guy did.Fun fact: These were a unisex fashion staple for British aristocrats vacationing in Bermuda back in the '30s because women were legally prohibited from showing leg above the knee. The police would literally give them a ticket for it.BOARD SHORTSCelebrity fan: Matthew McConaughey, circa every day of his lifeTypical length: Anywhere from knee-length to mid-calfTypical fit: Loose (unless they’re wet!)Best for: The beach or a Frisbee-tossing session that you want to look extra-intense for.Styling tip: If you’re not ready for smiley-face print, there are plenty of quieter patterns, too, like this stripe.Fun fact: These shorts are designed to stay on even when you’re surfing an intense wave. That’s why they have a fly and a more rigid waistband than most trunks. Great if you have friends who think pantsing is funny!THE SHORTS SUITCelebrity fan: Pharrell, circa 2014Typical length: Around knee-lengthTypical fit: SlimBest for: An awards show, a wedding, or your job as an Angus Young impersonator.Styling tip: Just like with a normal suit, you can mix and match the pieces as separates. Pair the shorts with a lightweight linen blazer or short-sleeve oxford shirt for a casual summer look.Fun fact: Designer Thom Browne is one of the fashion world’s biggest formal-shorts champions. Here is a tweed shorts suit from his fall collection on a model wearing a tweed rabbit mask—with no eyeholes.Illustrations by Jen Jackson, Groupon

Warm weather is here, and that means one thing: long days on the beach. To get ready, we made a wish list of the men’s beachwear items that, in a dream world, we’d wear every time we set foot on the sand. But in case we’re asking too much, we’ve also included some more affordable substitutes. We promise we’ll be happy with whichever you get us.
Seville Fedora from Optimo Hats ($500+)
If you have it custom-made with the highest weave quality and weave count, this hat, like the rest of Optimo’s Montecristi Panama hats, will run you several thousand dollars. Think of it as an insurance policy against trendiness. It’ll look good now and when it gets passed down to your grandson.
What we’d settle for instead: Panama hat from SuitSupply ($79)
Fowler sunglasses from Warby Parker ($145 for nonprescription; $195 for prescription)
Warby Parker has already brought the eyeglass industry into the 21st century. Now the company is setting its sights on sunglasses. See its modern take on aviators, for example. The frames are titanium and the lenses a polarized blue. We like them because they don’t reinvent the wheel—they just make it look bolder.
What we’d settle for instead: Aviators from River Island ($32)
T-shirt from Gant ($60)
You may not need a shirt to wear at the beach, but you will need a shirt to wear to it. Nothing says “I’m heading toward water” like this blue- and white-striped crew neck. We want it because it’s from Gant, an authority on all-American prep.
What we’d settle for instead: T-shirt from Uniqlo ($19.90)
Swim trunks from J.Crew ($75)
Seersucker normally pops up in men’s sections in the summer, just not in the swimwear section. J.Crew may be changing that with these slim and short trunks made from tonal seersucker. We want them because they stand out on their own, which is important for a swimsuit.
What we’d settle for instead: Swim shorts from H&M ($12.95)
Braided moccasin from Zara ($89.90)
We weren’t the only ones who had this sandal-loafer-moccasin hybrid on our wish list—the style sold out. If Zara doesn’t restock it, you can find similar styles here and here. We like the weaved leather look because it’s good for the beach and the beachside bar, which is something we can’t say for flip-flops.
What we’d settle for instead: Woven sandals from ASOS ($32.39)
Tilden towel from Onia ($120)
Next to swim trunks, the beach towel is the most important item to have at the beach. We want this one from beachwear specialist Onia because it has style and substance: one side features Onia’s signature fabric blend and the other has absorbent terry cloth. Plus, it’s a roomy 51.5”x 68.7”.
What we’d settle for instead: Beach towel from Lands’ End ($20)
